That's the backlash you have since media didn't report any problems with asylum seekers in the beginning. How long did it took the german state TV to report about the events on last sylvester? IIRC about 4 days in today's world with Facebook, Twitter, E-Mail and Smartphones... They even had to apologize for that.
BTW in Austria statistics show that non-citizens and asylum seekers are way over-represented in most criminal statistics, e.g. drug selling and violence.
